Little Fox, Where Are You

מילים

[Verse 1] You slipped through the garden gate at dawn With a leaf stuck sideways on your paw Sniffed the basil, nudged the stone Then carried one red apple home [Pre-Chorus] You pause when the sparrows start to call Tilt your head like you can solve it all [Chorus] Little fox, where are you going? Past the creek where the tall reeds bowing Tail like a question, feet moving fast Chasing a morning too bright to last Little fox, don’t disappear Leave one paw print so I know you were here [Verse 2] You found a button by the old fence post Tucked it beside your secret toast A blue jay watched from the cedar tree While you made a map no one could see [Pre-Chorus] You pause when the sparrows start to call Tilt your head like you can solve it all [Chorus] Little fox, where are you going? Past the creek where the tall reeds bowing Tail like a question, feet moving fast Chasing a morning too bright to last Little fox, don’t disappear Leave one paw print so I know you were here [Bridge] When the afternoon turns gold and slow You’ll find the path that only you know I’ll set one apple beside the gate And trust your paws to arrive when they’re late [Final Chorus] Little fox, wherever you’re going Past the creek where the tall reeds bowing Tail like a question, feet moving fast Carrying summer in a paper bag Little fox, now disappear Leave one paw print so I know you were here [Outro] One red apple by the gate One small adventure, never too late
